What would you think?
If your father
pledged all you
had:
the family’s
property & savings.
Gathered with rebels.
Signed a pledge of secrecy.
Travelled away year after year
Spent hours in the hot summer,
locked in a secure building to
argue with influential leaders
the causes and rights to protect.
Created written documents making
family & friends traitors to the King.
Thought freely and differently, yet spoke
for others’ concerns.
Fought battles.
Died penniless.
Risked everything.
Chartered a new country.
Adopted a bill of fundamental rights.
Championed democracy like no country before –
The signers of America’s Constitution.
Remarkable Stories.
